    Some of you are in for a huge shock as you learn what the Republican strategists have been trying to tell you about demographics. There may be only two places in which old white males are the majority: sports message boards and bars. The rest of the world is passing you by. A couple of facts...

    And that is what qualifies as political discussion on the other board.

    I don't see the merit of pretending that there is any intellectual discussion. I'd rather communicate with the sane and allow the Silent Generation time to die off, which is coming soon. Fortunately, our youth is wiser than its parents and grandparents, having actually used the internet to...

    Okie State softball eliminates defending Nat. Champs FL State & heads to College World Series

    In the last poll I did, I had OSU rated #7. We played them that weekend. Had I done another poll, they probably would have moved up to #4 or 5. Good defense, and I like defense in softball. We beat Auburn on a stupid defensive play, smart alec move. The CWS is often lost rather than won.

    I didn't see anything of merit on that board.

    Enough is enough

    I disagree with the above. When I was younger, I remember making statements and having attitudes that I know consider disgraceful. Hopefully, we have the decency to apologize and the wisdom to realize that we have had a lot to learn and that there is still more that will be revealed. I...

    Our great softball team new season soon starts Our Srs.have had 2 National Championships

    Alo hit exactly 30 home runs. We were very fortunate. Indeed, although Lopez, Mendes, Parker Conrad, and Vestal will be here, the starters will likely be a transfer, Giselle Juarez, a junior who was the ace that pitched Arizona State to the CWS, and Shannon Sailie, a junior transfer from...

    Western Kentucky at OU

    OU won opener, 90-83. 33 Shaina Pellington Soph (9 boards, too) 24 Taylor Robertson, FR, (8 of 14 from three) 15 Madison Williams, FR (had 15 boards as well) 11 Tatum Veitenheimer, FR, also had 5 steals. Great young talent on this team. Mistake prone at this point. Got tired at the end...

    "Lincoln Riley to Dallas Cowboys",

    Cowboys last won the Super Bowl in 95 with Switzer. Since then, they are 3-9 in playoffs, never winning a second game. Since Switzer left, they are 2-8. They define the mediocrity of the NFL. Jones spent at first. Then, he installed the salary cap which meant that he didn't have to spend...

    THE OFFICIAL GAME THREAD - GAME #9 - OU vs. TT

    The problem is not that OU is not a top ten team. We aren't. But, there are only two teams that I have seen that merit being in the top ten: Bama and Clemson. If you watch the rest of the top twenty, you would think that Mike Stoops coaches at all of them. Ohio State struggled to beat...

    THE OFFICIAL GAME THREAD - GAME #7 - OU VS. TCU

    Supposedly, in a well-officiated game, you don't notice the officiating. While it is possible that each of the infractions could have been called a penalty, it is also quite possible that most of them could have been ignored, or possibly only consisting of a warning. But, the calls were too...

    THE OFFICIAL GAME THREAD - GAME #7 - OU VS. TCU

    I don't know whether our defense stopped TCU in the second half, or Collins' injury stopped TCU. He was moving the ball until he was injured. Then, he missed about eight in a row. I was happy with our rushing. Our passing seemed different. We weren't hitting the bombs today.
